My wife got the "Hopes and Fears" CD today. Have been enjoying listening to it. Any others like it too? [keanemusic.*com] |

Yes, it's an excellent album, one of the best I've bought recently. |

Was thinking of getting it myself. Either of you chaps want to give it a review? Jeanette |

I'm crap at reviews, but basically... not one bad track on the album, very good melodies, having no guitar makes a refreshing change, very piano driven... I'd offer to make a copy but *cough* that would be illegal and I would NEVER do such a thing ;) |

John I've got lots of Georges in my tree but no Ringos yet! lol I doubt I will have the cd in my possession long enough to do a review. I usually get to listen to a cd once (twice if I'm lucky!) then it disappears into my teenage daughters room never to be seen again. They do sometimes reappear when we've had a barny about the state of her room - usually at high speed and in my general direction! lol Have either of you two heard Jets Get Born cd yet. Sorry Paul it is guitars but well worth a listen. Jeanette |

Hey, I have nothing against guitars per se, just made a nice change to bring the piano to the fore. No... haven't heard the Jets CD yet.. wife keeps telling me I buy too many CD's (a couple a week), so I haven't got that one yet... |

Hi all Just thought I would throw in some comments on Keane as the CD is hardly ever out of my CD player at the moment! I saw them when they were supporting Travis earlier this year. They were amazing! Hadn't really heard of them before that but I went straight out and bought the album and have been listening to it ever since. Lynne |

yes, I'm actually listening to them at the moment, copied the CD onto my laptop, it's played almost daily at the moment |

I hope to see Keane in Birmingham in November. I haven't heard Jets CD either. CDs and certificates - I have to ration what I buy!! |

Well, Hopes and Fears found its way into my shopping trolley yesterday. And I'd like to say thank you to Paul and John for recommending it - it's brill! Even my other half likes it and he usually only listens to stuff that's at least 20 years old! lol. No.1 Daughter did get her mitts on it for a short while but only after I'd made threats of certain death if I didn't get it back! lol Don't you think that Bend and Break (my tip for their next single) sounds rather like Freddie Mercury?

I agree, John, it's really great and I already can sing along with some of the tracks! lol As an "oldie", it is interesting to note that my son 23 and daughter 20 also enjoy this CD. Sue |

Well, finally got round to buying 'Hopes and Fears' today and it's very, very good indeed. Current faves are 'Bend & Break' and 'This Is The Last Time'. Vocalist sounds a bit like Fran Healy of Travis at times but it's confident sounding and very listenable. Impressive stuff. |

You've got discerning taste there Andy. I'm going to see them in Birmingham in two weeks time. I'll give them your regards shall I? |
